The upgraded rooms are very nice, totally worth it. Great bed, everything you could want in there and more. The floor wasn't very clean though, had gum stuck to it in a couple obvious places... The grounds are much more spacious than I had expected, but not kept up very well. The pool area was kinda sad. The bar staff were pretty awful. The one lady was eager, but the guys need to find something else to do with their lives. Totally out of it, only there to party with their friends I think. The free breakfast wasn't money well spent, and there was barely coffee. But Antigua is awesome and this place was affordable, so I'd stay again and just avoid their in house restaurant (there are many other places to chose from, including one that is also on site).

Hotel has a nice aesthetic and has a lot of amenities. I can see how it would be great for meeting people. However I paid $140/night for the private room with bathroom and honestly think there are many many other hotels in Antigua that give you more value for your money (Smart TVs, larger modern bathrooms, etc.) Room service was horrible, ordered on their app and it took nearly an hour and half to get our food cold and in plastic containers. Had to complain in order to get the order remedied and delivered hot and on actual plates. And lastly I can’t overlook just how noisy this area is- the nearby church rings bells

For the price, this place was great. I got a private room that had the basic amenities, though the shower wasn´t the best. Location is central and close to all activity and shuttle drop offs and pick ups. Their social activities don´t seem to really happen, but I wasn´t there for that so all good. Staff was pleasant and chill.

States at both Socialtel properties ( Atitlán and Antigua) but the property in Antigua was the worst by far. Staff looked so unhappy I was afraid to ask any questions. The room was dirty and the furniture moths. Very noisy at all times; you could hear people’s steps above you. The towels were old and teared. Don’t stay here; they need major renovations and a change in attitude!
